Its because its not Netgears original firmware, although its built on it.

Thanks for your advice and for the link. Currently i'm on v1.0.2.36 and when i tried to upgrade to Voxel version 1.0.2.41SF, i got a message saying this Voxel version is older than the version i currently have although i see on Voxel website the date of that version to be 11/2017. Any idea why is that?
